MONBLEU Le Comptoir, Wine and cheese bar in Le Marais, France.
MONBLEU Le Comptoir is a wine and cheese bar in Le Marais spread across two levels with an outdoor terrace at 12 Rue Dupetit-Thouars. The menu features around 150 organic wines paired with artisanal cheeses sourced from French producers.
The restaurant opened in June 2020 as an expansion by Damien Richardot, who had launched his first Monbleu location at Faubourg Montmartre in 2018. The move reflected a growing focus on wine and cheese experiences in the city.
The place partners with a renowned cheese expert to source regional French varieties from Alpine areas. Visitors can taste traditional selections that reflect how French food culture values craft and terroir.
The venue is open Monday through Friday starting at 17:30 until midnight, and from noon on weekends. It offers private event spaces and takeaway options, so availability may vary depending on bookings and the time of year.
The menu creates vast possibilities for pairing since wines and cheeses can be combined freely rather than following set pairings. This flexibility means every visit can feel different depending on what you choose to try.
